Actor Allu Arjun will be seen in fellow actor Nandamuri Balakrishna’s show Unstoppable. The promo of the show was recently shared online by the makers, and it showed the Pushpa star talking about winning her first National Award as Best Actor.

The actor, who is now gearing up for the release of Pushpa 2, mentioned how he would be upset if the Telugu film industry was not recognized at the National Awards. When Balayya, as he is popularly called, asked Allu Arjun to share his thoughts about winning the prestigious award for the first time, he attributed it to the Telugu film industry.

The 42-year-old shared that he had been trying to win the National Award for a long time and Pushpa helped him in it. The actor said, “In the history of the National Awards, no Telugu actor has ever won the award. I was saddened to see it. That’s when I decided to win it.”

The two stars also had a fun conversation about life choices and family. The promo started with Balayya welcoming Arjun on the stage and addressing him as ‘dear friend and brother’. When Balakrishna asked her to organize a party, the Pushpa star jokingly told him that she would love to organize a party for him at the NBK mansion.

Arjun also shared interesting anecdotes about spending time with fellow actors Chiranjeevi and Mahesh Babu. He also recalled how his childhood was naughty and his mother used to scold him a lot, but he never changed. The actor said that it was only after ‘Hathiyaar’ named Sneha Reddy came into his life that he adopted a disciplined lifestyle.

This is the fourth season of the show and the special episode featuring Allu Arjun is divided into two parts. The show had previously welcomed actor Suriya and Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu. The new episode will be aired on November 15.
